Beech Hall School offers a distinct and exciting alternative to larger independent schools for parents and their children, providing a breadth of educational opportunities and a high level of individual attention within a beautiful environment. We aim to keep class sizes small to enable us to provide this individual care.
Welcome to
Beech Hall School

Beech Hall is a non-selective independent school for boys and girls aged 6 months to 16 years. Situated in a beautiful sixteen-acre site on the edge of the Peak District, housing two listed buildings, playing fields and swimming pool, we are proud to be able to provide a truly child-centred approach to education.

A balanced focus on academic attainment, sporting opportunities, emphasising individual strengths and celebrating traditional values are at the core of everything that is important to us at Beech Hall.
